Because coloniality is everywhere, decoloniality is unavoidable - 2021.

In this text, Walter D. Mignolo, one of the founding members of the modernity/coloniality group along with his friend and colleague Aníbal Quijano, returns to the definition of coloniality as the “dark side of modernity” and the forms, not only political and economic but also epistemic and aestheSic, that decolonial investigations and struggles must take. Acknowledging the forebearers of these struggles and denouncing the “colonial management of knowledge” that has attempted to eradicate their memories, Mignolo’s text celebrates those of Ottobah Cuogano, Felipe Guamán Poma, and M. K. Gandhi as supports for a decolonial and pluralistic thinking of the border
